css - Font size rendering inconsistencies on an iPhone

Question

I’m testing my website and is working fine on every browser, except for the iphone browser (i think it’s mobile Safari?) that renders a piece of text with a bigger font that the rest. I’ve checked the CSS by hands and using firebug on the page and I can confirm I’ve put the same size to all of them. How do I fix this?

Answer 1

To improve on Lukasz's idea slightly, try using the following rule in your CSS:

body {
    -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
}

Using the value '100%' instead of 'none', allows all other Webkit-based browsers to still resize text when using the zoom function while still preserving your original font size.

This issue is arising only in modern browsers like safari, opera with iPhone device. Solution is

Append this style with the -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; or -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; with required class it works fine. Example: I want the condition to be applied only when request comes from mobile. So I have appended the complete navigation path that full fills my requirement.

.mobile-phone .authenticated-page.authenticated.mobile-community.mobile-document .notification .notification-dialog.content-frame 
{
    -webkit-text-size-adjust: none;
}

or

.mobile-phone .authenticated-page.authenticated.mobile-community.mobile-document .notification .notification-dialog.content-frame {
-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;

} both will work fine. No need to apply the styles for complete body
